Aterrorizar, agotar y silenciar a quienes defienden el ambiente<\/b><\/h3>\n

As\u00ed operan las demandas SLAPP, juicios estrat\u00e9gicos contra la participaci\u00f3n p\u00fablica, que crecen en todo el mundo como una herramienta de intimidaci\u00f3n legal. Detr\u00e1s de discursos de \u201cprogreso\u201d o \u201cdesarrollo sostenible\u201d, las corporaciones utilizan el sistema judicial para callar la cr\u00edtica y desgastar a las comunidades.<\/span><\/p>\n

En Panam\u00e1, el conflicto por <\/span>Puerto Baru<\/b> lo evidencia. En agosto de 2025, las organizaciones <\/span>Adopta Bosque<\/b> y <\/span>CIAM Panama<\/b> fueron notificadas en redes sociales de que enfrentaban denuncias por \u201ccalumnias\u201d y \u201cdelitos contra la econom\u00eda nacional\u201d. \u00bfSu \u201cfalta\u201d? Cuestionar un proyecto portuario que amenaza los <\/span>manglares del Golfo de Chiriqu\u00ed<\/b>, uno de los ecosistemas m\u00e1s importantes para la <\/span>biodiversidad marina<\/b> y la <\/span>protecci\u00f3n costera<\/b> del pa\u00eds.<\/span><\/p>\n

When defending nature becomes a legal risk<\/b><\/h3>\n

Estas demandas no buscan justicia, sino <\/span>intimidar, agotar y silenciar<\/b>. Son una forma de censura que erosiona la democracia y debilita el derecho ciudadano a participar en decisiones ambientales. Al atacar a quienes protegen los ecosistemas, se protege la impunidad de quienes los destruyen.<\/span><\/p>\n

La criminalizaci\u00f3n de la defensa ambiental se traduce en <\/span>estr\u00e9s emocional, desgaste econ\u00f3mico y da\u00f1o reputacional<\/b> para las organizaciones y l\u00edderes comunitarios. Pero tambi\u00e9n pone en juego la credibilidad internacional de Panam\u00e1, un pa\u00eds que ha reconocido legalmente los <\/span>Derechos de la Naturaleza<\/b>, pero que permite que se acuse a quienes los defienden.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pongamos un alto a la criminalizaci\u00f3n ambiental<\/b><\/h3>\n

Defender la naturaleza no deber\u00eda ser un riesgo. Exigir transparencia y justicia es parte esencial de una democracia viva.<\/span><\/p>\n

\ud83d\udc49 <\/span>Firma la petici\u00f3n y comparte esta campa\u00f1a.<\/b>
\n<\/b> Porque <\/span>defender la vida es un derecho, no un delito.<\/b><\/p>\n
